ETCHINGHAM residents are being urged to get involved in a public consultation over plans for a major development in the village.

Plans for the piece of land known locally as the Lambing Field will include a new primary school, including a nursery, a village hall and a mixed development of housing.

The plans, which are currently in the design stage, follow negotiations between East Sussex County Council (ESCC), the Diocese of Chichester and School Trustees, Etchingham Parish Council and the Etchingham Trust with the landowner, Dr Ahrens.
